If you're interested in an air fryer but don't have room for another dedicated appliance, consider a toaster oven-style air fryer. These toaster ovens are equipped with an air fry feature, allowing you to make crispy snacks and golden-brown toast in the same appliance. Of course, not every toaster oven with an air fry feature is a good option for quickly making crispy food. Overall, air fryer toaster ovens don't perform as well as basket-style air fryers. These units air fry less evenly and more slowly. However, if you choose the right model, you can get good results whether you're air frying, toasting, or baking.
We've tested more than 20 toaster ovens, and below are our recommendations for the best air fryer toaster ovens. If you're also considering separate appliances, see the best basket-style air fryers and the best toaster ovens.

Best Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.6Mixed Usage7.5Cooking Capacity8.7Coated Baking TrayYesSee all our test resultsSteam FunctionNoThe best air fryer toaster oven we've tested is the Breville the Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro BOV900BSS. This large-capacity toaster oven can accommodate a 9" x 13" baking pan and has four rack positions, making it suitable for preparing big batches and full meals. It has a good air-frying performance, producing mostly crispy, evenly cooked air-fried food. It's easy to clean the spacious cooking chamber, which has a non-stick coating.
Its decent temperature stability and wide temperature range make it a versatile option that you can also use for other methods like baking or dehydrating. However, as a bigger oven, it preheats slowly. It's not the best choice for toasting bread, either. While it can fit nine slices, it makes the most even toast with just four slices in the chamber and works very slowly.

Best Upper Mid-Range Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.6Mixed Usage8.1Cooking Capacity7.2Coated Baking TrayNoSee all our test resultsSteam FunctionNoThe best upper mid-range air fryer toaster oven that we've tested is the Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer CTOA-130PC3. This medium-sized model isn't as suitable for preparing full meals as the Breville the Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro BOV900BSS, which offers a good air frying performance, so your food comes out mostly crispy and well-cooked. The smaller cooking chamber helps it preheat and air fry quickly, especially for an oven-style air fryer, which are usually slower than drawer models. The chamber also has a non-stick coating, so it's easy to clean.
Its wide range of temperature settings and fantastic temperature stability make it a versatile option that you can also use for baking, reheating, and or dehydrating. The 'Dual Cook' feature allows you to set up two-step cooking, so you can bake and then broil something like a lasagna. However, while it toasts bread faster than the previous pick, it's still much slower than the average slot toaster.

Best Mid-Range Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.4Mixed Usage8.0Cooking Capacity8.7Coated Baking TrayYesSee all our test resultsSteam FunctionNoThe best toaster oven air fryer combo that we've tested at a mid-range price point is the Ninja Foodi DT201. This large-capacity toaster oven can fit a 9" x 13" baking pan and has four possible rack positions, so it's a good option for preparing big batches and full meals. It makes mostly well-cooked air-fried food, so your French fries or crispy veggies come out mostly crispy and golden-brown. However, it doesn't preheat or cook as fast as the Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer CTOA-130PC3, so it's not as convenient for preparing quick snacks.
It's very versatile. You can use 'Air Roast' for a low fan speed and 'Air Fry' for a high fan speed, or use it for cooking methods like baking with no fan. Unlike previous picks, its interior doesn't have a non-stick coating, but its size makes it easy to reach into, and it's still easy to clean.

Best Budget Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.7Mixed Usage7.0Cooking Capacity7.1Coated Baking TrayNoSee all our test resultsSteam FunctionNoThe best combo air fryer toaster oven we've tested is the Cuisinart Air Fryer TOA-70. This medium-sized toaster oven can accommodate a 12" pizza or six slices of bread. Using its 'Air Fry' function and mesh air frying basket, it quickly cooks foods like French fries and chicken wings, leaving most of each batch crispy and golden brown. A smaller portion is left undercooked, so it doesn't air fry completely evenly, but overall, its performance is very good for an oven-style air fryer.
Otherwise, it's a decently versatile option with some unique features. The 'Grill' function heats food only from the bottom, which is handy for options like burgers, salmon, and asparagus. While it lacks a preheat reminder, it heats up quickly, and it's also a good option for reheating leftovers. While you can use it with or without convection for baking, it doesn't maintain a stable temperature during cooking, so it's not the best option for this purpose, as it can lead to your food burning or drying out before it's fully cooked. As for toasting performance, while it can handle six slices of bread at once, it makes much more evenly browned toast four slices at a time.

Best Cheap Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.5Mixed Usage8.0Cooking Capacity7.2Coated Baking TrayYesSee all our test resultsSteam FunctionNoIf you're looking for the best air fryer toaster oven combo available for cheap, consider the Ninja Flip SP151. This compact toaster oven has a space-saving trick: you can flip the oven backward when not in use, allowing you to store it out of the way and giving it a much smaller countertop footprint. The cooking chamber doesn't have a lot of vertical space, so it may not fit a cake or a loaf of bread, but its mesh air fry basket is around the same size as the Cuisinart Air Fryer TOA-70's. It air fries a little less evenly, but it still produces mostly crispy Brussels sprouts or chicken wings, delivering decent results in a relatively short time.
It also offers a good multi-purpose performance. It maintains a stable temperature during cooking, ensuring consistent results when baking or roasting. You can use it to toast six slices of bread quickly, making it a good option for brunch or a large family breakfast when you need a lot of toast in a hurry. However, the cooking chamber's smaller dimensions make it more difficult to clean by hand than the other options here, especially since it doesn't have a non-stick coating.
